We’re predicting that 2022 will be the year of apple cider – and on-trade retailers should make sure premium and crafted apple propositions are given prominence on the bar to make the most of these thriving sub-categories.” OUR STORY: Refined over many years since 1880, Henry Westons Vintage Cider is now the UK's most loved apple cider brand, crafted only from bittersweet cider apples grown in a single year’s harvest in Herefordshire Westons said: “The year of the apple is upon us and it is premium and crafted apple ciders that will be the driving forces for growth in 2022, as on-trade outlets ready themselves for a continued rebalancing of value and volume sales, which will swing further in their favour over the next 12 months.” Expect a rise in the use of tech and digitisation – following Covid-restricted drinking, the use of technology and digitalisation of venues has now become the norm and presents an opportunity to re-engage with customers and tell brand ‘stories’, driving on-trade trial and brand loyalty. The Westons Cider Report 2022​ gives its predictions on the shape of things to come in 2022 and lists five things to expect.

According to the recently released Westons Cider Report 2022​, which has been compiled largely in conjunction with data experts CGA, Kantar Worldpanel and IRi, apple variants are leading the way for on-trade cider sales as they regain ground lost throughout the pandemic and move towards pre-pandemic levels. They could be of the exact same level of sweetness but they will taste completely differently because the apples that have been used are completely different. And something I’m very keen to try to make the trade and consumer understand is that it’s not just about dry, medium, sweet, it’s about what type of cider is underneath there. The Ciderologist Cook summarises: “Pubs are missing out on an opportunity to capture a new type of drinker and a new experience that craft cider can provide. It can provide some of the experience of beer in terms of how it’s drunk but can also capture some of the flavour characters of wine. Cider is the ultimate thirst quencher on a warm summer’s day but it can also be so much more than that. There are so many different types and styles and flavours that can appeal to a whole range of different drinkers and this new wave of craft ciders means there’s a cider for everyone.” Supplied in 30-litre key kegs, the 0.5% ABV cider “provides the option for anyone who is not drinking alcohol to enjoy a fresh, crisp and tasty cider that is dispensed on the bar, creating theatre and anticipation as the sparkling, golden liquid hits the glass”. Sandall says: “We’re seeing three key drinks trends at the moment – people opting for premium choices and serves, the growing importance of low and no drinks and people choosing brands they trust.

Premium draught apple cider now accounts for more than one quarter of all draught cider sales (source: CGA data for Total GB On Trade, 52 weeks ending 29/01/22, Value Sales). To help outlets make the most of this opportunity, we expanded our premium offering further last year when Sharp’s Brewery collaborated with the Aspall Cyder House to launch Sharp’s Cold River Cider – a 4.5% ABV medium-dry apple cider with a light, crisp, and moreish flavour.” And the calories in cider don’t just come from the alcohol – it is high in sugar too. A pint of cider can contain as many as five teaspoons of sugar – almost as much as the NHS recommended daily limit. 6

The cider was “perfectly balanced between sweet and dry for a great tasting refreshment”, said Heineken, and was lightly sparkling with “fresh apple aroma”.Thatchers Blood Orange Infused Cider. 4% abv. Tapping into one of the biggest flavour trends in food and drink this year, Thatchers Blood Orange, is our brand new citrus infused flavour. Option two would be a classic ‘western counties-style’ of cider. This is a cider made with specific varieties of apple that have been grown for centuries for the sole purpose of making cider. They contain large quantities of tannin, like you would get in a red wine but it’s not to the same extent of that but it does provide some mouthfeel, structure, boldness and some mouth-drying sensation called ‘astringency’. This is what people will call a quite dry cider. These are classic to Herefordshire, Somerset and Devon, and these are the apples that the likes of Westons and Thatchers use but they dilute their ciders so they’re sort of lightweight and gentle but you could have some more robust and full-bodied cider. Molson Coors Beverage Company on-trade category controller Mark Bentley adds: “Consumers are beginning to explore how they can pair new innovations in cider with their favourite dishes in the same way as has traditionally been done with wine.

How many units and calories are in cider? | Drinkaware

A pint of cider with 4.5% ABV can contain 210 calories - that’s roughly the same amount of calories as a ring donut. Yes, it could well be the Year of the Apple but that’s not to say fruit-flavoured variants will not enjoy success too. So long as it’s a year for pub operators, we’ll all be happy to have a year of almost-normal trade under our belts and, if that happens, surely there are even more better times to come in the future?

What’s more, if you find that you eat more junk food after a drinking session, you won’t be alone. That’s because drinking affects the hormones that control your appetite, 10 as well as making you less inhibited and therefore less likely to make healthy choices. 11 Cook says cider has a completely unique flavour profile compared to beers and wines, and it offers a drinking opportunity for a variety of occasions. Yes, it can be the summer thirst-quencher but can also be that really refreshing drink, something to you have with a meal, something that you can ‘pop’ when celebrating, one to sit and savour, as examples. At the point of pour, the Thatchers Fusion Font infuses a micro measure of the selected fruit flavour into a pint of Thatchers premium apple cider, creating one of three freshly mixed ciders. As the cider is being dispensed through the Fusion Font it delivers a unique sensory experience of flavour and aroma. Your customers get the same expertly crafted apple cider, with a freshly-mixed infusion hitting the glass as one. Premiumisation remains a driving force with consumers drinking less but better quality. Cider volume is expected to recover in 2022 to near 2019 levels with value growth predicted for both on and off-trade channels. Thatchers says its Haze and Gold variants are leading the way and extolled the virtues of its 3 in 1 Fusion Font that features Dark Berry, Cloudy Lemon and Thatchers Blood Orange flavoured ciders.
